What else can I help you with?
Car will not start unless the battery is jumped changed battery and alternator doing same thing pull positive cable off battery car dies what could be wrong with the 1992 eagle talon?
If the battery and alternator are both good, Test them to be sure, then you need to take a multimeter and verify that the power from the alternator is actually reaching the battery. It could be a simple wiring problem
When you drive your 2000 elantra you notice that smoke comes out of the battery top vent you changed the battery and this is still going on does anyone know what could be the problem?
The alternator is probably over-charging the battery. Replace the alternator if the voltage at the battery terminals is over 15V when the engine is running.
Could alternator drain battery when car is not running?
If the alternator is installed incorrectly, yes, it can drain the battery.
What should you do if battery was not charged before installing new alternator?
My advice is to charge the battery with a battery charger before starting the engine. You will be putting a heavy load on the alternator if you allow it to charge a dead battery. This could damage the alternator.
MY car will start when jumped but sometimes start and die and the battery will not keep charge could this be the altinator?
could be the alternator. could be the battery, the alternator charges the battery but does not stop the battery holding a charge.could also be a bad starter motor. take alternator off and have it tested. most places will test for free
The alternator and battery checked out fine but the battery light stays on. What could it be?
Probably loose drivebelt. or alternator belt of it is seperate.
Why would the alternator in your 1994 Mitsubishi galant not be charging the battery when it is not defective?
usualy if the alternator is not defective then its the battery. you should start by cleaning the battery post. then you could check the terminal wire that runs from the battery post to the alternator. if thats not it you should check the ground on the alternator.
Why is your car not starting and the battery keeps dying?
Possibly a bad alternator. The Alternator charges the battery when the vehicle is running. If the battery is not being charged this could cause the vehicle not to start.
Why would a good alternator not charge a battery?
If the alternator is good and the battery does not charge, then the battery may be bad. There could be problem with the electronics. You will need to take it to a place where they sell batteries. They have equipment to check out the battery and the wiring.
Battery light stays on in your Chevy silverado 2005?
test the voltage on the battery first, then on the alternator. If its good then it could just be the diode in the alternator. I would suggest you replace it becuase eventually your alternator will die and the battery will not get charged leaving you stranded somewhere. It is possible to just be a battery but you wont know unless you have the battery tested. check the voltage on the battery and the alternator before you do anything else.
Battery light was on and checked to see if it was the alternator and the alternator was bad have not fixed the alternator and now the battery light has not come back on what could be the problem?
There is no problem...the problem was the alternator. You have fixed the problem.
Your speakers in your car short out when you accelerate Could that Be your alternator or battery?
the batteries only serve to start the car and the alternator. I'm not sure if it would be your alternator but it's not the battery.
